Swimming Pool Industry Statistics: Enhancing Safety In Your Swimming Pool

By Virginia Ross


Swimming pools play a significant role in our households. However, many people tend to overlook the aspect of Natatorium maintenance. This often results from the lack of technical expertise about the maintenance of natatoriums. Fortunately, there are certain upgrades, which can make Natatorium maintenance easier. According to recent swimming pool industry statistics, the following are some dependable swimming pool upgrades that will promote its appeal, safety, and maintenance.

Part of the appeal of a natatorium is its clear sparkling water. Opaque or off color water is not inviting to dive into and may be dangerous. You would never dive into a vat of poison, so make sure your Natatorium is as clean as it is beautiful.

Most people who have used a Natatorium often say they urinated in the Natatorium and as it turns out, it occurs more often than not. However, people don't have to poop in the pool to contaminate the water as poop gets in the facility through people's bums. A study showed that people's bottoms have an average of 0.14 grams of feces. Also recently, a Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) study has shown that 80% of public natatoriums had health and safety violations.

Experts suggest detoxifying your body to get rid of chemicals like chlorine. Chlorine destroys most disease-causing germs abruptly - the very reason it's used in drinking water and 95% of natatoriums in the United States. Without chlorine the risk of contracting many serious waterborne diseases increases.

All Natatorium users must observe safety precautions. All the adults and children users alike should be aware of safety in the natatorium. A high fence around the natatorium that has a secure gate will protect small children from wandering in to see the shimmering water and falling in. Make sure toddlers can't climb over the fence.

Heat Pumps are another useful component. In as much as many Natatorium owners overlook heat pumps, installing the devices is a worthwhile investment in the long run. The simple act of keeping the Natatorium heated helps extend its swimming season. Most household natatoriums have electric or gas heaters.

Also, Michael Plewa, a professor of genetics at the University of Illinois, notes that what is used in most public Natatorium systems are brominating agents and not environmentally sound disinfecting agents. He states that when carbon-friendly substances like feces, sweat, urine, skin, hair, cosmetics, and sunscreen mix with the brominating agents, it becomes a toxic cocktail.

Besides, ensure to take a bath before and after going in the water; and if you are having an open wound, or suffering from an infectious disease, avoid using the facility. Be sure to empty the Natatorium when there is no adult to watch the children. Natatorium safety needs diligence from every adult present by the natatorium.
